Hi I am using the showDialog and dismissDialog methods to show progress dialogs in my app. Moved from creating the dialog and calling show() on it to using this in order to save state when changing orientation. But when I change the orientation from portrait->landscape->portrait, the dismissDialog method call no longer dismisses the dialog. The dialog stay there all the time and I need to press the back button for it to disappear. To overcome this issue, I tried adding a removeDialog in onDestroy so that the dialog is not created/displayed twice and before orientation change, the dialog is removed. Tried adding log statements and this is what happens 05-21 12:35:14.064: DEBUG/MyClass(193): *************callingShowDialog 05-21 12:35:14.064: DEBUG/MyClass(193): *************onCreareDialog

But after that, onCreateDialog is called twice (once by a call to showDialog which I make, but why the 2nd time?) and this happens every time I change the orientation hence forth. Any idea why that happens? Thanks --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
